Feed the Future Malawi Interim Survey in the Zone of Infuence, Non-Food Expenditures Over Past 12 Months

Abstract

This dataset contains data from sub-Module E5: Non-Food Expenditures over Past 12 Months. It is part of the 2015 Feed the Future Malawi Interim Survey in the Zone of Influence. The survey was designed to monitor program performance by periodic assessments of a number of standardized indicators. A total of 1,021 households were interviewed, which provided data for the target sample size of 1,007 households and ensured the sample is representative of the seven districts covered in the interim assessment. Each household with data for non-food expenditures over the past 12 months has multiple records (for the 32 non-food items in sub-Module E5). (32,672 records ÷ 32 non-food items = 1,021 Module E households with sub-Module E5 data.) The unique identifiers in this long file are pbs_id + e501
